Habrosyne gloriosa, the glorious habrosyne moth, is a moth in the family Drepanidae.[1] It is found in North America, where it has been recorded from the northern United States , south in the Rocky Mountains to Arizona. In Canada , it is found in Ontario and Quebec.[2]

The wingspan is about 37 mm. Adults are very similar to Habrosyne scripta, but the antemedian line has a sharp angle near the middle. Adults are on wing from April to September in two generations per year.

The larvae's host plants are unknown but presumably Rubus and Physocarpus species.[3]
